I'm a maniacal perfectionist.

I invented 'It's a good thing' before you were even born.

The more you adapt, the more interesting you are.

Giving information that will help everybody live better. That's a teacher's dream - to accumulate information and disperse it in a form that allows people to choose the way they're going to use it. That's what I think I do best.

I find that when you have a real interest in life and a curious life, that sleep is not the most important thing.

I think I may be a better person for having given serious time and thought and effort to gardening.

Plants respond far better to moderate but consistent care than they do to occasional bouts of heroic intervention.
